Paintings for Sale

It’s such a joy to pick your paint brush and see what comes about. It’s really interesting to try different stuff. Does an artist need just one style? I don’t think so!

“Full of Colour” PAINTING FOR SALE

I had set these paintings up on my mantel to look at from time to time to see if I was completely satisfied with it. Turns out, I wasn’t. So with a little bit more paint and standing back some more … it’s done.

Pondering Change, Tulip Painting

TULIP PAINTING FOR SALE - has changed a bit.

Sometimes paintings have a bit of an evolution. This painting started out from a photo I’d taken of white and pink tulips. I got the green leaves painted first and then once I added the pink, the pink felt wrong. The leaves had overpowered the whole painting. Then I started adding more colour to the tulips. Recently I thought it was done and had posted a photo of it. But as it hung in my dining room, there didn’t seem to be quite enough depth in the tulips. I finally feel that it’s done. When I took it from my dining room and set it on my mantel to take this photo, I stood back and was amazed at the power of the colour!

 If you’re interested in this celebration of colour for your home or office, send me a message and we’ll chat.

Refreshing to Paint like this!

I don’t know what got into me, painting with colour and no detail! But I love it! I’ve always loved colour but always gotten so into detail. Don’t get me wrong, I love painting that way but it’s so exciting to do something a little different. I’ll see where this takes me but for now ….

Paintings - A Palm Leaves canvas series

A painting series that belong together! 

This painting changed from having a lot of burgundies in it to just a hint of that. This, group of three, hangs in a family room that has a lot of windows and a view of trees, bushes, and grass. I see this painting as bringing the green inside as well. Once I brought the paintings over the the client’s home to see the change to lots of green, we knew it was right. This is something I would love to have kept myself! I guess that’s what I strive for in all my paintings - that I’m so happy with them that it’s hard to say good bye to them.

A New Painting In The Works!

I'm pretty excited about the start of a new painting! It's not a commissioned painting, I'm doing it … just because I want to! And I want to thank my husband for spotting this gem of a photo to paint. The photo is from a series of photographs I took from tulips picked from my yard. I've been working on it a little whenever I get a chance, which is basically late at night! I'm loving all the green in it I'm not sick of painting green yet but I'll enjoy getting at the petals once I'm satisfied with everything green. Look for another photo hopefullycoming soon.

family portrait painting

This is part of a family portrait I recently finished. I’ve just shown one person from the painting and only a partial shot of him to keep the family’s privacy. This was done in acrylic and as you can see I took some artistic licence with the background colour and had fun showing some brush strokes and vibrant colour. After all, it is a painting not a photo! Quite the trick catching their essence but keeping artistic flare alive. Also tricky when working from multiple photos! It’s a personal success each time you set out to paint a person and you feel like I’ve nailed it … or at least nailed in in your own style.

special portrait completed for Christmas

A special portrait done in acrylic was completed just before Christmas. Here is a partial photo, to keep the full 

painting just for the recipients. A little bit different from the photo because longer bangs were added.
